Thread: How do I make someone appear in my dreams!?

All the techniques in this thread should work. My personal "trick" is to narrate my own dream . For instance, if I'm in a empty room, I turn around and I say to myself "when you turn again, there will be a whole bunch of people". Then I turn, and there is a whole bunch of people.

You have to believe it, otherwise your bidding may not be sufficient. Also, keep in mind that the unconscious part of your brain remains active, even in a lucid dream. People may change shapes, or not look exactly like they should.

I suggest to exercise the ability to generate actors in a dream. Try to make them appear, then disappear, then reappear, no matter who those people are. It's only an exercise, but it helps to eventually bring someone precise into a dream.

Note that technically an individual should not be able to speak to you in a LD, unless you command this person to speak, or let the subconscient speak for this person. But I do not recommend that last option, for letting the sub act can cause the loss of focus, and the return to a normal uncontrolled dream.

Are you sure? I mean, just being lucid doesn't grand you full control over your dream and/or subconscience. Weird things still happen so it would sound logical to me that DC's can still talk without you specifically commanding them to.

Well, it can be discussed, of course. In my experience, I (the dreaming I) can chat with people in normal dreams. In (my) LDs, people are all mute(s), unless I command them to talk and decide on what they ought to say.

I, of course, try to remain in full control in / of LDs, fully focused, for it is to me the best way to remain in the LD state, otherwise the lucid dream could become a normal dream, with the loss of focus, which happens when I'm distracted in a dream.

Such a distraction can occur when someone says something that I did not tell him or her to say, which leads me to believe that losing focus and control can result in losing the LD state. Since LDs to me are recurrent but not that frequent, I prefer to remain in full control over the content, and have fun doing stuff I can't normally do IRL.
